Fireforge Games Announce The Byzantines As Their Next Plastic Range
July 4, 2017 by dracs
Fireforge Games have announced that they will be working on a new range of miniatures recreating the Byzantine armies, the first unit of which is already up for pre-order.
This new piece of artwork shows off the skoutatoi, the backbone of the Byzantine forces, easily recognisable by their long shields.
As the successors of Rome's military might, The Byzantines have a rich history to draw upon and a culture that saw a melding of eastern and western concepts. Fireforge should have plenty to choose from when coming up with their new sculpts.
Is this a period of history you are interested in?

I have a deep and unending love for the Byzantines as a result of playing the first Medieval Total War game.
Those do look really good.
damnit, that takes me up to two Byzantine armies haha – I hope they produce a cavalry box too…
Looking forward to these.
OMG, I’m going to be so broke.
They look really nice. I can see myself using some in a Lord of the Rings army…
